SSRC FELLOWSHIPS ON INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND
GLOBAL SECURITY

The Social Science Research Council is pleased to announce the availability
of summer fellowships for innovative research on information technology
(IT), international cooperation and global security.  PhD students and
faculty from any academic discipline and of any nationality may apply. These
in-residence fellowships (location TBA), for summer 2002, are designed for
researchers who currently work on cooperation and security issues and who
want to explore the role and impact of IT in this area; or for researchers
who work on IT and want to explore its relationship to cooperation and
security.  Doctoral-student fellowships are $5,500.  Faculty fellowships are
$10,500. 

International cooperation and global security involve a wide range of issues
including new forms of global regulation and surveillance; transboundary
advocacy and global civil society; economic and political "crisis" and
system transformation; unequal access to goods and services; transnational
identity politics; conflict and transboundary intervention; changes in
security threats, military and warfare practices; legitimacy, power and
governance in the global realm. IT issues could involve the Internet and
related technologies such as those associated with telecommunications, data
processing, encryption, and systems of code; robotics, automation, and
simulation; and concerns bearing directly on connectivity and content such
as structures of information flow and processes of disinformation and
dissemination.
